WIERED REMOTE CONTROLLER INSTALLATION

• Since the room temperature sensor is in the remote controller, the remote controller box
should be installed in a place away from direct sunlight, high humidity and direct supply of cold
air to maintain proper space temperature.
Install the remote controller about 5ft(1.5m) above the floor in an area with good air circulation
at an average temperature.
Do not install the remote controller where it can be affected by:
- Drafts, or dead spots behind doors and in corners.
- Hot or cold air from ducts.
- Radiant heat from sun or appliances.
- Concealed pipes and chimneys.
- Uncontrolled areas such as an outside wall behind the remote controller.
- This remote controller is equipped with a seven segment LED. display. For proper display of
the remote controller LED's, the remote controller should be installed properly as shown in
Fig.1.

Connecting Pipes to the Indoor Unit

Pipe bending
Annealed copper pipe with small diameter (ø6.35 or ø9.52) can be easily bent manually. In this
case, secure large R(radius) for the bend section and gradually bend pipe. If annealed copper pipe
is large in diameter (ø15.88 or ø19.05), bend pipe with bender. Use bender appropriate for the pipe
diameter.

Brazing
In refrigerant piping, bending (in particular, acute bending) must be minimized to reduce piping
resistance. Bending is, however, necessary in some places by virtue of the installation position of
devices auxiliary to the packaged air conditioner, or of the building structure, piping distance or
finishing appearance. If a more acute bend is required than that attainable by pipe bender, perform
brazing using ready-made elbow. Aside from this function, brazing also serves to connect straight
pipes, generally using ready-made sockets. While brazing, protect piping against heat with wet cloth
to avoid damaging valve packing or burning thermal insulator with burner heat. While brazing, blow
inert gas (nitrogen gas or carbonic gas) to prevent formation of oxidation film in copper piping;
otherwise, the refrigerant circuit will clog. The blowing of nitrogen gas (or carbonic gas) through 3-
way valves is described in the following:

Refrigerant piping(Flare piping)

When connecting piping, be sure to keep piping dry(keep piping away from water), clean (keep
piping away from dust) and airtight (avoid refrigerant leakage).
When connecting piping on rainy days or making a through-hole in wall, take due care to prevent
water or plaster from entering piping.

Water enters Plaster enters

CAUTION:
• This procedure is designed to prevent formation of oxidation film by
filling piping with inert gas. Note that excessive gas pressure will
generate pinholes at brazed points.
(Nitrogen gas: Supply pressure 0.05~0.1kg/cm2G)
• When supplying inert gas, be sure to open one end of piping.

1) Never fail to have an individual power specialized for the air conditioner. As for the method of wiring, be
guided by the circuit diagram pasted on the inside of control box cover.
2) Provide a circuit breaker switch between power source and the unit.
3) The screw which fasten the wiring in the casing of electrical fittings are liable to come loose from
vibrations to which the unit is subjected during the course of transportation. Check them and make sure
that they are all tightly fastened. (If they are loose, it could give rise to burn-out of the wires.)

5) Confirm that electrical capacity is sufficient.
6) Be sure that the starting voltage is maintained at more than 90 percent of the rated voltage marked on
the name plate.
7) Confirm that the cable thickness is as specified in the power sources specification.
(Particularly note the relation between cable length and thickness.)
8) Never fail to equip a leakage breaker where it is wet or moist.
9) The following troubles would be caused by voltage drop-down.
• Vibration of a magnetic switch, damage on the contact point there of, fuse breaking, disturbance to the normal
function of a overload protection device.
• Proper starting power is not given to the compressor.

Air Purging of the Connecting Pipes and the Indoor Unit

ENGLISH
The air which contains moisture remaining in the refrigeration cycle may cause a malfunction on the
compressor.
1. Confirm that both the liquid side valve and the gas side valve are set to the closed position.
2. After connecting the piping, check the joints for gas leakage with gas leak detector.
3. Remove the service port nut, and connect the gauge manifold and the vacuum pump to the
service port by the charge hose.
4. Vacuum the indoor unit and the connecting pipes until the pressure in them lowers to below -
76cmHg.
5. Remove the valve stem nuts, and fully open the stems of the 2-way and 3-way valves with a
hexagon wrench.
6. Tighten the valve stem nuts of the 2-way valve and 3-way valve.
7. Disconnect the charge hose and fit the nut to the service port.

1. Position V-H, F-H:
• This position sets the maximum E.S.P as a default set.
2. Position V-L:
• This position sets the minimum E.S.P as a default set.
